I think I have the same catalogue as Richard - it came with a TRU Star Wars
"Gold Card"..
The catalogue has the release date as 'late August'.
Interestingly the catalogue doesn't contain prices for any product - maybe
the prices hadn't been fixed at the time the catalogue was printed, or they
are allowing for regional variations...
So what is the Micro Scout? The text seems to imply that it has sensors and
motors built in, which suggests it's more like the CyberMaster control brick
rather than the 'real' Mindstorms RCX brick, even though the kit is being
marketed under the Mindstorms banner
Incidentally the Yoda backpack on page 16 of the TRU catalogue is *so*
cool...
I saw The Phantom Menace on Tuesday and I loved it!
